On October 3, 2025, StepStone Group Inc. announced that it had entered into distribution agreements with Crowd Street, a private‑market investment platform. The agreements will allow Crowd Street members to access StepStone’s private‑market funds across several asset classes, including private credit, private equity, secondaries, venture capital, and real assets.
Under the new partnership, Crowd Street will offer two StepStone funds to its members: a private‑equity fund and a venture‑capital fund. The private‑equity fund is a tender fund designed as a core private‑markets holding, while the venture‑capital fund provides exposure to early‑stage companies. StepStone’s total capital under management is approximately $709 billion, with $189 billion in assets under management, underscoring the scale of the opportunity for Crowd Street’s accredited investors.
Bob Long, CEO of StepStone Private Wealth, said, “We’re incredibly excited to work with Crowd Street to expand access to investment opportunities for its members, and offer access to StepStone funds across various asset classes.” The partnership represents a strategic expansion for StepStone, opening a new distribution channel beyond its traditional institutional clients and potentially driving fee‑related earnings growth.
